University of Waterloo architecture graduate Michaela MacLeod is the
winner of the Canada Council for the Arts’ Prix de Rome in Architecture
for Emerging Practitioners. She will have the opportunity to research
various design approaches taken to the reclamation of waste sites within
North America and Europe.
The $34,000 Prix de Rome in Architecture for Emerging Practitioners is
awarded to a recent graduate of one of Canada’s ten accredited schools
of architecture, who demonstrates exceptional potential. The prizewinner
is given the opportunity to visit exceptional buildings across the
world, and to intern at an architecture firm of international stature.
Over the next year, MacLeod will investigate abused, neglected and
contaminated waste spaces formed as a byproduct of industrialization
within urban areas.
